LF Home Meet at the Brainerd Arb
As you know, we're having our home meet this Saturday at the Arboretum. Even though the meet was moved from Camp Ripley, we're still responsible for managing the event and need volunteers to help direct skiers along the course and to serve as back-up timers. Time slots are short and are arranged so that you can choose a time either before or after your skier/s race/s.

Flyer Buffs & 2nd Chance for Nordic Apparel
The MSHSL rules for masks limit skiers to buffs/masks that are "black, white, or beige or school colors. These may include only the school names and/or mascot". If you're looking for a buff that meets this criteria, we have a limited number of Flyer buffs available for sale. The buffs are $13 and can be purchased from the coaches at practice. Please make checks payable to: Flyer Nordic Ski Club.
We are also re-opening the Nordic Apparel Order. If you are interested in ordering, you can do so online. The storefront will close next Friday, January 15th. When the clothing items become available, coaches will distribute them at practice. If you prefer, you can have them shipped to you (for a fee) or you can put a note in the comments that you would like them to go to you, rather than your skier, and I'll contact you to work out a time to meet.
CLICK HERE to visit the storefront.
Notes about the storefront:
*You will get an email confirmation that your order was placed. If you do not get an email, you did not fully finish the process.
*In the checkout process, you can pay to have garments shipped to your home, or if you click on "Pickup In Store or Team Delivery", the coaches will distribute the orders when they become available.
*You are able to pay with whatever method is most convenient, including PayPal, credit, or debit card. The first step is the yellow check out with PayPal button, which will bring you to the next screen to select your payment method.
